I hope republicans/conservatives have to learn their lesson the hard way around.

You are banking on people who have likely never picked up and read a single book after high school, and who likely read at a fifth grade level or less, to learn?

Especially when they have proven themselves to be such gullible rubes and suckers, uncritically swallowing everything the alt-right says like a herd of sheeple?

Buddy… you sound as reality-avoidant as they are.

And these people will gladly “starve to death”, either to “own the libs” or because they have bought so deeply into the lies and propaganda that it has become a critical part of their being and the cognitive dissonance of trying to learn the truth would be more painful than said starvation.

Fact-free ideology is one hell of a powerful drug.
